The Disability Resource Center, in partnership with the university community, strives to create an accessible, inclusive campus where students with disabilities have an equal opportunity to fully participate in and benefit from all aspects of the educational environment. In accordance with the ADA and related laws, we provide accommodations to support physical and programmatic access, as well as related services, to CSU students with documented disabilities. The DRC serves as a resource for students, faculty, staff and the community regarding disability issues.

Students with disabilities seeking accommodations or services should submit appropriate documentation to determine eligibility. Documentation guidelines, additional information and necessary forms are available in our office and on our website.
